Homes with Acreage for Sale in South Jordan, Utah
South Jordan has changed faster than almost any city in the Salt Lake Valley over the past twenty years, and acreage properties here are a shrinking commodity. What used to be farms and pastures west of Redwood Road has largely given way to Daybreak, the District, and dense single-family subdivisions, which means the homes still sitting on a half acre or more carry real scarcity value. Most of the remaining larger parcels are clustered on the west side near the Jordan River corridor, around the older agricultural pockets off 2700 West, and in a few legacy neighborhoods south of 10400 South where original homesteads were never subdivided.
Buyers shopping South Jordan for land usually want a specific combination: room for horses, an RV pad or shop, a garden, or just distance from the neighbors — while still keeping a 20-minute commute to downtown Salt Lake, quick access to Mountain View Corridor, and Jordan or Bingham High boundaries. Climate plays in too. The west valley pulls cold inversion air in winter and bakes in July, so usable acreage often means mature trees, secondary water shares, and outbuildings that hold up to both. Inventory turns over slowly in this segment, so when a true acreage home hits the MLS it tends to get attention.

Common questions
About homes with acreage in South Jordan.
How much land typically qualifies as an acreage property in South Jordan? ▾
Most MLS listings flagged as acreage in South Jordan sit on half an acre to two acres, though a handful of legacy parcels on the west side near the Jordan River or off 2700 West still run three to five acres. Anything larger is rare given how built-out the city has become since Daybreak and Kennecott land developments took off.
Which South Jordan neighborhoods still have larger lots? ▾
The older sections south of 10400 South near River Ridge, pockets along Bingham Creek, and a few horse-zoned streets west of Redwood Road tend to hold the larger parcels. Daybreak itself is master-planned with smaller lots, so true acreage there is uncommon outside of a few estate sections.
Can I keep horses or livestock on acreage in South Jordan? ▾
It depends on the zoning of the specific parcel. South Jordan has agricultural and equestrian-zoned areas, particularly on the west side, but much of the city is zoned residential with animal limits. Always confirm with South Jordan City's planning department before assuming a property allows horses, chickens, or other livestock.
What do acreage homes in South Jordan typically cost? ▾
Pricing varies widely with land size and home age, but expect a meaningful premium over standard subdivision homes. Half-acre properties often start in the high $800Ks to low $1M range, while one-plus acre estates with updated homes regularly trade between $1.4M and $2.5M depending on improvements like shops, barns, or secondary dwellings.
Is water rights or secondary water included with acreage parcels? ▾
Many west-side South Jordan properties include shares of secondary irrigation water through the South Jordan Canal Company or similar entities, which is a big deal for keeping pastures and large lawns green through July and August. Verify share counts and delivery schedules during due diligence — they don't always transfer automatically.
How long do acreage listings stay on the market here? ▾
Larger-lot homes in South Jordan tend to move slower than typical subdivision listings simply because the buyer pool is narrower and price points are higher. Days on market can run 45 to 90 days, though well-priced equestrian properties with shops or updated homes still sell quickly when they hit the MLS.
